ABOUT US
At SASO, we create beach products that are truly made for salt, made for sol. With “sol” meaning the sun, our name reflects our love for everything coastal and sun-soaked. Based in Australia and inspired by our local landscapes, we design with both beauty and practicality in mind, offering shade that doesn’t just protect, but enhances the moments you spend outdoors.
All of our products are crafted using eco-conscious materials and premium UPF 50+ protective fabrics, so you can feel confident spending time under the sun - safely, stylishly, and comfortably. Each piece features bold, joyful patterns designed to stand out on the sand and bring a little colour and delight to every beach day, picnic, or sunny escape.
SASO was born from real moments with the people closest to us. One friend, who was expecting her first child, needed something lightweight, simple to carry, and easy to set up. Another friend, picking up surfing as her new favourite hobby, and needing a shade option she could manage carrying and setting up solo. A third, an avid camper and outdoor lover, was looking for something compact that could travel anywhere. And for us, we wanted something vibrant and nostalgic. Something that looked beautiful in photos and felt special in real life, but without any of the fuss. No fiddly parts, no boring beige, just functional, feel-good shade that made it easier to stay out longer.
Our travels around the world also played a huge role in shaping SASO. Experiencing stunning beaches in Europe and beyond, we were inspired by the way other cultures embraced colour, pattern, and design in their outdoor lifestyles. We wanted to bring a touch of that vibrancy home to Australia, blending it with our laid-back coastal way of life.
Those different needs, different lifestyles, stages of life, and outdoor habits, all shaped the heart of SASO. Every detail in our products reflects those stories, from the carry bag to the easy setup to the colours that make a statement.
Our mission is simple: to create well-designed, high-quality pieces that make it easier—and more beautiful, to enjoy time outdoors. Whether you're chasing waves, setting up for a family day at the beach, or finding a little shade on a camping trip, SASO is made to come with you.
